Guardians Place Arias on IL, Recall Brito
CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Guardians made a significant roster move on April 7, 2026, placing shortstop Gabriel Arias on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.
In a corresponding move, the team recalled infielder Juan Brito from Triple-A Columbus. Brito made his MLB debut the next day and responded impressively with two hits, including a double, an RBI and a run scored.
Arias is expected to miss 4-8 weeks, testing the Guardians' infield depth early in the season. The move underscores the importance of roster flexibility as Cleveland aims to maintain its strong start.
